i would like to put on record an instance when a panelist wrongly challenged himself for repetition. Nicholas Parsons got it wrong too.
THEME MUSIC
ANNOUNCER: We present Clement Freud, Peter Jones, Warren Mitchell and Jean Marsh in Just A Minute. And as the Minute Waltz fades away here to tell you about it is our chairman Nicholas Parsons.
NICHOLAS PARSONS: Thank you, thank you very much indeed, hello and welcome to Just A Minute. And we're delighted to welcome back Warren Mitchell and Jean Marsh to play the game with Peter Jones and Clement Freud, who have played it so often before. Once again they're going to try and speak if they can on some unlikely subject without hesitation, without repetition and without deviating from the subject on the card. And we begin the show this week with Clement Freud. And Clement, the subject that Ian Messiter has thought of is cobber. Would you talk on cobber for 60 seconds starting now.
CLEMENT FREUD: Cobber is the sort of thing that nice people are called in Australia. You don't say "good morning sir", "good afternoon gentleman". Or anything of that kind. Cobber suffices. Taxi drivers are hailed by that name. Bus conductors stop when you address them as... I am sorry, I said address before. I think somebody ought to buzz. I'll buzz myself.
BUZZ
NP: Clement Freud, you've challenged yourself.
CF: I repeat, I repeated myself and being a totally honest man...
NP: Well you were listening extremely well, much better than everybody else! You get a point for a correct challenge and you keep... And there are 33 seconds left on cobber with you starting now.
....
just sharing :-)
